Oh my darling won't you sleep?
I don't think I am yours to keep awake the whole damn night
Oh my darling won't you sleep?
You might consider that I need to stay in shape
To keep up with you, when you wake anew
And tomorrow will be, just like yesterday
Full of love and life and laughter
A thousand new things that you're after
Oh my darling won't you sleep?
Oh my darling won't you sleep?
I promise you your dreams will take you where you want to go
Oh my darling won't you sleep?
And even if they don't then there's another chance tomorrow
To keep running to the place you're longing for
To open yet another window or another door
Into a new world that is even more exciting
Than the one that is still keeping you awake
Oh my darling won't you sleep?
Oh my darling you're asleep
I can't believe my luck, I'm out of here but then
I just sit there and watch you sleep
Your breathing's soothing me, I'm tempted to count sheep
My eyes are heavy but my heart is just so light
Tomorrow'll be here after one long and peaceful night
New adventures will await
I'm almost sure you won't sleep late
Oh my darling you're asleep
Oh my darling we're asleep
